Hmmm, I only took a quick look at the EPS website and could only count 22 murders last year. I must have been looking in the wrong place. But yeah I think things have been coming down a bit up here. Although, that probably just means that we're due for a big upheaval in gang activity or something that will eliminate a few more people from this town.
